Established early in the 17th century Convento dei Cappuccini has a long history of wine making. The Botto family has owned the vineyards surrounding the Original "Convento" for over 300 years. In the 1960's Pier Luigi Botto's Great Uncle bought the original "Convento" and the family has now placed the actual production in the property. As Pier Luigi says "The monks have made wine in Convento Cappuccini for hundreds of years." The estate covers an area of 62 acres, with 32 acres devoted to vineyards. This Brachetto is lightly sweet, strawberry-flecked and frothy. Ideal with birthday cake.
